There are an estimated 10,000 religions worldwide. If you believe that your religion specifically is the correct one then you're mentally retarded. There are only three rational positions regarding religion; Agnostic Theism, Apatheism, and Atheism. When you bring specific, testable claims like talking snakes into it you just look like a moron.
Nonono guys you don't understand, religion #195 is the correct one because some guy said so, the guy who said religion #574 was the correct one is a liar and a charlatan but my guy is the correct one because he just is okay???
>>18514815Religion is a post colonial European concept modeled after protestant christkekery
>>18514815>There are an estimated 7,100 languages worldwide. If you believe that your language specifically is the correct one then you're mentally retarded. There are only three rational positions regarding language; Mumbling, Mutism, and Cutting Off Your Own Tongue.
>>18514815>pray to my local gods to keep my hometown peaceful and free of natural disasters>it's peaceful and free of natural disasterssimple asbut we don't buy into the "if you worship a different god you're going to hell" thing, there are a lot of gods.
>>18514815What about Agnostic Atheist?
>>18514865>What about Agnostic Atheist?A meaningless and purely hypothetical position.
>>18514868If Agnostic Theist is allowed to exist on the OP then so should Agnostic Atheist. You could just have put Agnostic or Pantheist.
>>18514873"Agnostic Theist" basically means "muh faith". An atheist of any kind thinks he has good reasons to reject the idea of God and therefore is not "agnostic".
>>18514815Our descendants only started recording things a few thousand years ago. There are many bones, mummies, etc of corpses that may or may not be intact, and we probably won't be around to see the day humans can be revived as long as their remains are available. Then, we might get several testimonies.Until then, the best thing to do is live by whatever gives you peace of mind. If people hate or harm others because of differing visions of religion, then no matter what their religion is, they are bad because they infringe on the human design. Too bad this solution will never be achieved because the world collectively won't live by their own idea of peace of mind.I'll do my part though.
>>18514877Agnostic Atheist means you don't believe in god yet aren't absolutely certain on the existence of one.
>>18514886>you don't believe in god That's atheism.>aren't absolutely certain on the existence of oneThat's a pointless redundancy. Nothing is "absolutely certain" under atheism.
>>18514888>That's atheism I know>That's a pointless redundancy. Nothing is "absolutely certain" under atheism. Ok, then who are those people that staunchly claim that God doesn't exist?
>>18514890>who are those people that staunchly claim that God doesn't exist?Obsessed atheists.
>>18514893I.e. the ones that are on subreddits that make it their whole identity?The ones that believe "muh science"

>>18514908Look, I don't care about redditors and fedoras. My point is that once you reject the linchpin of the Intelligible Universe, "can't be absolutely certain" becomes sweepingly true about everything, including scientific theories. If "agnostic" is taken to be an independent qualifier like in pic related, meaning "can't be 100% certain", then you're as much an agnostic gravitist as you are an agnostic atheist (assuming you stick to the rational position within your own framework). It stops being a useful distinction if thus defined. In a context where lack of certainty is a given, saying you're 'agnostic' can only usefully signal that you neither accept nor reject a notion, so using it to qualify your atheism is incoherent: atheism is an explicit rejection of deities.
>>18514859Nice straw man you retarded nigger. I don't have to believe the language is the "right one" in order to use it. We cannot say the same about religion. I have to believe that the schizo ramblings are the right ones to derive in any value from religion.
>>18514815The prior probability of a given religion being right is 1/10000. The posterior probability is zero.
>>18514933Right, so for atheism to be true you have to accept the schizo ramblings about Bruce Jenner is a woman now. You already reject 10,000 non-Christian religions, we just reject one more.
>>18514933>I don't have to believe the language is the "right one" in order to use itOk. Do you have to believe it's the "right one" to grasp how integral it is to your culture and your way of seeing the world? To think that it captures something fundamental about reality that other languages fail to capture? And on a totally unrelated note, do you subscribe to leftroon cultural relativism? :^)But this is almost secondary to the fact that the multiplicity of languages in no way diminishes the importance and centrality of language in the human condition, nor does it make aphasic retards look any less mentally disabled.
>>18514937>>18514946Retards can't even formulate a coherent argument for the validity of the religion they're desperate to defend, so they pivot to screeching poltard brainshart about le tranniees.
>>18514958Notice how your psychotic rage and low IQ preclude you from coherently responding to anything in that post.
>>18514960There's nothing worth responding to in your irrelevant brainsharts.
>>18514962I accept your full concession. Your retarded opinion is basically what >>18514859 portrays.
>I accept your full concession. Your retarded opinion is basically what >18514859 portrays.
>>18514946high-IQ take. you can even go beyond the analogy and see that it's more or less literally true. religion is a language that deals with the sacred. it's no more separable from culture than the language of the profane. it's mainly the atheist imbeciles who treat a religion as an isolated element that can be judged as "the right one". people fight and kill for their way of seeing and their way of being because it's theirs, not because it's the "right one". it used to be common sense to think your enemies simply have their own gods who have jurisdiction over them. monotheistic religions are actually rare among the 10,000 religions OP cites>>18514958it's ok to be mad, you got mogged hard
>>18514982You can't even capitalise the words in your sophomoric soliloquy, retarded zoomer.
>>18514994who's talking to you, dumb animal?
>>18514815Ok, fag, what measurements do you regularly run?
>>18514815>OP’s entire postLike most posts today, they are just trolls.The answer is no, because English is used worldwide , and Jews were the spiritual center of the entire world, who came out of Egypt, also the spiritual most influential empire at one time, because of the invention of Papyrus. Aka, they gave us paper, which is why God sent His people there to get it and come out of there. It’s why we have a Bible. It’s why God is God. You are just trying to insult true believers.God invented everything about the Home before giving you a home. Running clean water, food, clothing, etc all came from Him first.
>>18515630There are more non-Christians than there are Christians
>>18514937The idea of a gendered soul that troon ideology relies on is much closer to theistic views than atheist ones.
>>18514920I could look like that pic for all you and I care but snakes still can't talk lil' bro
>>18515630OK OK but what reason would anyone have to believe in your god?
One religion was on the banners that conquered the whole world another another is worshiped by 5 tribals in a mud hut are not equal in odds of being right
>>18514864>pray to my local gods to keep my hometown peaceful and free of natural disasters>it's peaceful and free of natural disasters
>>18514815>There are an estimated 10,000 religions worldwide.First of all. There aren't.Lets take the Pagan European religions as an example.Norse, Germanic, Balkan, Slavic, Russian, Hellenic, VedicAll have the same root. The gods are the same, the stories and myths are the same but with different names.When you look at the creation myths of the European pagan religions, the structure is nearly identical to the creation myth of the bible.They are essentially one religion.Catholicism for example, is essentially a pagan religion with the same creation myth, same core concepts (e.g. trinity) with Christ added on.Claiming that they are all different religions, and different gods just demonstrates you have the shallowest, most superficial understanding of what god and religion are.> When you bring specific, testable claims like talking snakesNo you just sound like a moron who doesn't understand allegory.
